Double Click the Login Button in the NETBEANS or add the Event Listener on Click Event (ActionListener)

btnLogin.addActionListener(new ActionListener() 
{
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        this.setVisible(false);
        new FrmMain().setVisible(true); // Main Form to show after the Login Form..
    }
});
